[NA-Discuss] [At-Large] New CIRA Whois Policy Strikes Balance Between Privacy and Access

[Jeffrey A. Williams]

Danny and all,

  I don't read or interprate the link below in quite the
same way you do Danny, but also I think given some other
of CIRA's statements they pander regarding privacy yet
allow third party access to PII in Whois.  Ergo, I see,
as doe our members especially those in Canada, that CIRA
is playing both ends against the middle.  This is of course
an old and well known political stratagy that usually ends
up creating more disharmony, significant lack of accountability,
and serious damage to stakeholders, whomever they may be or in
which juandra is involved.

  ICANN, GNSO, and the GAC's desire for more studies is
seemingly seeks to break the privacy issues instead of
stalling, by continuing to have more Working groups, studies,
ect., ect.  This also is yet another old and failed political
stratagy that also largely and usually serves no harmonious
of productive ends due to the lack of creditable means.

  The only primary ligitimate concern is once or accuracy in
Whois data, not one of whom has access to PII in whois.  Yet
the accuracy problem is being used as a wedge issue to rehash
the latter privacy issue.  Very childish in my and many of our
members opinion.
